The brief

The Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) seeks a supplier to conduct an audit of domestic chargepoint installations, funded through the Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme (EVHS), by making on-site visits to carry out technical/electrical inspections at the addresses of a sample of domestic chargepoint installations and reviewing the processes used by installers.

3.2 Desk checks and on-site visit checks are required for a sample of installations completed under the above-mentioned scheme.

3.3 On-site visit checks will be conducted by experienced and qualified electrical inspectors.
